Echo

A found vintage oil painting and acrylic painted wood on canvas with a three-dimensional element. The work is mounted behind glass within a white, wooden frame.

This mid-century find was painted by an unknown artist. It has been divided into concentric circles and then raised. Laser-cut MDF rings, painted in complimentary colours, dissect the forest scene and radiate out creating a sense of movement.

This work is part of a series of pieces appropriating old oil paintings and giving them a new lease of life for a contemporary audience.
